What customers say
Sandwich Lakes is a ripper spot, dead peaceful with heaps of space on the campsites. Showers and toilets are spick and span, and the cafe's food and service get a massive thumbs up. Fishing's a ripper too, with lakes loaded with fish. They're doing it up, so there's a bit of mud now and then and the Wi-Fi's a bit dodgy, but most punters reckon it's grouse and are already planning their next trip.

So handy as a stop over for the ferry.
Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Perfect stop over before getting the ferry from Dover. Lovely hot shower. Very clean toilets & showers. Had a washing machine onsite & sinks to do your dishes. Neat & well kept site. The pitches were not crammed in. Security gate closed at night. Had a scrummy breakfast from the waterside cafe.
Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Liked We originally booked a grass pitch but when we arrived it was too wet. The guys on reception were brilliant and let us move onto a hard standing. They were really nice and very helpful.
The site was quiet and tranquil. The showers were hot and with a good pressure. A very nice site.
